Caleb Bauer Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Sadly, Caleb Bauer posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Nokomis over Arthur-Lovington/Atwood-Hammond on Friday. Bauer picked up two sacks and made 11 total tackles. Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 5.7 total tackles per game.
